Unauthorized Session Management in FreeSWITCH via mod_verto
CVE-2026-49843
5.3MEDIUM
What is CVE-2026-49843?
The FreeSWITCH platform, known for its powerful telecom stack, contains a vulnerability in the mod_verto module which improperly manages session identifiers (sessid) during initial connection setup. An unauthenticated network attacker with knowledge of a specific session UUID can exploit this flaw to forcibly terminate an active session. By interfering with the connection establishment, the attacker can evict legitimate clients, resulting in unauthorized access and possible call disruption. This loophole has been addressed in version 1.11.1, which includes patches to enhance session authentication and security measures.
